Ohio Beer

Hi, I'm looking for personal recommendations for beer bars in Cincinnati, Cleveland and Columbus please. I've looked at several websites but the reviews seem a little old, and may not truly reflect the beer/bar quality today. Brewpubs I've no problem with. It's the beer bars with a good range on tap that I'm after.

Where do the locals drink in these cities? I'll be staying in hotels downtown, and using public transport, so bars close to bus/metro routes. No website links please, just good honest advice for a serious British beer drinker.

Thanks, Lee, Derby UK.

British? Then I'm afraid you're going to be disappointed.

Great Lakes in Cleveland is a terrific brewery. Look for craft beers in Ohio and you won't be disappointed.

In Columbus there is an area near downtown called Germantown, and there are some micros there. I would agree with Great Lakes in Cleveland, and if you can, visit the Westside Market for some Cleveland flavor. Cincinnati is a German town, and I went to a micro south of the city, but you probably cannot get there on a bus. While in Cincinnati you need to eat goetta. Also, Cincinnati is famous for its' chili. I remember reading that Cincinnati for its size has more excellent restaurants than San Francisco. It could have been in triple A.

It wasn't clear to me whether that should be read as a drinker of British beer, or a British drinker of beer. Or perhaps even a British drinker of British beer--the OP is from the UK, after all.

And then what about "serious"? :-|
